Divine Omen | Chapter 1

Avan jolted awake from the same nightmare he'd experienced for nights on end. It was something he'd learned to live with - something that lingered over him since he was just a boy...but last night was different. A distant yet familiar voice called to him through an endless, empty expanse. Visions of a small body wearing blue flooded his vision. His right palm seared from a burn that had long since healed. The nightmares had only grown more vivid with time. More sinister. More real.

The young man held his aching hand close as he wandered to the watchtower he'd been summoned to. A little girl was found dead not far from the city. Though her clothes stained with black blood were alarming in their own right, it was their blue hue that captured Avan's intrigue. Could his dreams be tied to the truth of what happened?

Reports of disappearances climbed high on the Guard Captain's desk while the pain in Avan's head grew. In a bid to ease his guilty conscience, Avan found himself invested in uncovering the truth. The night before he was set to depart for the scene of the crime, two strange figures bearing an eerie message visited his dreams.

"Executioner...your first and final trial waits for you there...at the temple."

It didn't mean anything. At least not then.
